... 2 ) Concentrated solar power plants are being developed using air–solid suspensions as heat transfer medium. A bubbling fluidized bed is made to flow through the receiver tube by the application of pressure difference across it. Additional air is injected to stabilize the flow. Many...

... of commercial vapor compression air conditioning equipment fed with electricity from centralized solar power plants could, in short, become available in these countries. In this paper, based on the experienced gained with the simulation of the most recent installations of absorption cooling installations...

... by the Negev Desert, a region with high insolation levels, relatively low population density (except for a small number of cities), and large areas of land that cannot be used for conventional agricultural purposes. The Negev is therefore an ideal location for future solar power plants. These facts prompted...
